3 out of 5 stars Eh...   October 10, 2008
I can fully see how Super Paper Mario charms so many people, but for me personally, the bad outweighs the good. I wish it were otherwise, but there's no accounting for taste. So here's my humble review.

The graphics are colorful and inventive, but no more so than you'd see in a regular Gamecube title. I like how the Wii remote is used sideways like a regular controller... that was cool. And the dialogue is so funny sometimes... but sadly, after a while it became the only real source of entertainment that I got out of the game. I'm a super-fast reader, so the amount of it didn't faze me... although I could have done without some of the more useless explanations and tidbits of information.

The one big thing that takes the cake for me in this game is: it's boring and tedious. It seriously takes out of the replay value for me, which is unfortunate, since I paid $50 for it straight up, at the store. The elevator music soundtrack and dragging gameplay is a good way to relax if you want to think about nothing important and just space out, though. And you get to look at pretty scenery while you're at it, too.

Maybe after I'm done with the game, I'll draw some Mr. L fan art. Along with Count Bleck, he (and Luigi, I guess, by default) is the coolest character.



1 out of 5 stars So not an RPG   October 8, 2008
You call THIS an RPG? This game is... truly disappointing if you are a fan of Paper Mario. It has no turn-based function what-so-ever! And Mario can't go in all directions unless flipped into 3D! This game isn't even worth renting. Waste of Money.


5 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL!!   September 2, 2008
I absolutely love this game!! I have played all the games in the Paper Mario series, and this one is just as good as the others. It will have you enjoying yourself, scratching your head in confusion, and absolutely laughing out loud. The gameplay is easy to get used to, the storyline lovely (how does Nintendo keep coming up with storylines!? You'd think they'd run out of ideas), and the text part of the game is clever. When I say laughing out loud I mean it too, there are some puns and some parts are just plain silly. This game uses the Wii remote, maybe not as much as some games but it lets you interact more than you would usually be able to in your average video game. All of the Paper Mario games have kept me entertained for hours, I highly recommend all of them and especially this one!!

3 out of 5 stars Mario's english, not so good   August 24, 2008
I know I'll get death threats for this, and possibly a visit from a Donkey Kong hitman, but I thought this game was only so-so. It has the typical cheesy, shallow story line, which I'd be fine with, except for inconsistencies and an apparently poor translation at times. The level designs are fun, and the flip in dimensions is innovative and useful. Making the game play for the most part quite fun.

My one major complaint is switching the pixels. As much fun as some of the powers are, the play mechanics to switch between them will suck you right out of the game. To have to frequently jump into the menu system make a couple selections and switch your pixel is a real drag. I'm perplexed that they didn't treat them like swapping out guns in a FPS, which would have made much more sense, especially considering how essential they are for normal game play.

Otherwise, I believe I would have found enjoyment through the entire game, instead of
